As modern pagans, the diversity of our gods, systems, and practices is both a challenge and a strength. Rather than exacerbate differences, we should seek common ground to encourage a healthy and cohesive community. One thing many of us share is the presence of heroes in our mythologies. Central to the protection of humanity, these mighty warriors provide a cohesive undercurrent upon which we may build new avenues for community and communal practice. Please join us for an eclectic ritual honoring the various iterations of Pagan heroes, such as Sigurd the Dragon Slayer, Beowulf, Hercules, Cu Chulainn, and others. This ritual will involve several members of the Mystic South community, including Rev. Sr. Clio Ajana, Rev. Fr. Moonraven-luvantas, Jen Dodson, Atterkopp, Beofeld, and Sanat Kumara. Each participant will represent and invoke a hero relevant to their personal practice and/or pantheon and contribute to a communal altar-space.

Kispum is a ritual of relationships with the dead that began in Sumerian/Akkadian (2500 BCE) culture . The ritual explores practices for the Pagan and occult communities to maintain connections with departed loved ones and honor ancestors. I incorporate the Continuing Bonds Theory as a modern (1970s) alternative to the Western Detachment Theory of "letting go" of the dead. This perspective embraces the idea of ongoing relationships beyond death, focusing on rituals, commemorations, and sacred practices that sustain these connections. My modern take emphasizes the significance of these enduring ties, providing insight into how such traditions and rituals within Pagan spirituality foster a sense of continuity. The session includes an optional pouring water ritual, to which attendees are welcome to participate. Come with the names of beloved dead. The ritual will be explained.

The labyrinth is a powerful spiritual tool, a special type of maze with only one path leading surely to the center and safely back out again. It is especially connected with the ancient Minoans. As modern Pagans, we can reconnect with its potent symbolism via labyrinth-walking rituals. In this ritual, you'll meet Ariadne, the Lady of the Labyrinth; the Minotaur, the kindly Guardian of those who tread its winding paths; and the Serpent Mother, who is in a sense the Great Labyrinth itself. Discover the secrets of your own spiritual essence as you receive the gifts these deities have to offer you. Our floorcloth labyrinth has 36â€_x009d_ wide paths to accommodate wheelchairs and walkers, and we will have finger labyrinths available for those who prefer to remain seated but still participate. Come join us as we create new paths in life by walking a very, very old one!
In ancient times people would journey great distances to places like Göbekli Tepe and Skara Brae, to maintain relationships with their extended families, friends, and allies. In this ritual, we who have traveled from near and far will recommit ourselves to our Gods and ancestors, to the land and the spirits of the land, to caring for ourselves and supporting each other as we move forward in these difficult times. Because we cannot , and will not, go back.

Come to a revelry for Pan, satyr-shaped Greek god of nature, wild things, border places, and music. Pan is a mixture of mayhem and melancholy, merriment and mysticism. A vessel of wisdom in his own way, Pan pushes those who encounter or call upon him to experience life more fully, and more intimately. Let us raise a ruckus! Tempest, Nathaniel, and Davis (The Mechanist & The Star Goddess) will lead the evening through improvisational music and dance that fuses together elements of Modern Traditional Witchcraft, Inspired World Music, and Ritual Performance.
Are you celebrating "Winter, Spring, Summer, Fall," when you live in: "Rainy, Hurricane, Dry, and, Fire Seasons." Would you like to connect with the Magic of the Land you Live on, rather than the land your ancestors came from? Would you like to work with your Animal Spirits and Ancestors, more than the Gods/Goddesses? Do you like the way an Altar looks, when doing ceremony? Then, this Path is for you. Rev. Whale Maiden was inspired to create the Earthways Shamanic Path which combines Core Shamanic Journeying (Animism and Ancestors), with Native American Spirituality in 2000. Learn how she developed the Wheel of the Year for this Path, how she calls in the Directions, sets up the Altar, and, the reason for/intent of the celebrations (observances) of each of the Seasons. All of Whale Maiden's workshops/ presentations are accompanied by some singing and drumming and/ or the use of rattles, journey-work, and time for journaling. Please bring notebook/sketch book, and pens/pencils/crayons.
